Kendrick Lamar briefly talks about the Club Paradise Tour with the A$AP Mob and Drake which is currently ongoing and what his plans are for one of the few songs I’ve been keeping on constant repeat “Cartoons & Cereal“.
In a recent interview with Good Fella Media, the first, female XXL freshman Iggy Azalea covered multiple topics. When discussing her sexuality, Iggy explains why men should not confuse females who are “being sexual” with not having respect for themselves. She then shares a story on how she “fanned out” when she first met 50 cent and discusses Whitney Houston’s death.
We caught up with Casey Veggies at the 424 store in Los Angeles and spoke to the young rapper about his new album, first headlining show and what to expect in the future.

The genius behind Calenders, who has been spotted on numerous blogs including Mishka NYC after the release of his debut mixtape, takes some time to chop it up with Mommy Warbucks about numerous topics. The South Florida rapper talks about what the difference between savage and trill means to him, why he doesn’t want to be compared to any other rapper, Tuesday Thru Sunday and more. After just dropping his well-received mixtape, Robb Bank$ confirms that he has another project coming soon already in addition to a solo project from Matt Meyer Lansky and a Tuesday Thru Sunday collab project.

We spoke after their show Saturday night at the Pagoda Lounge in San Jose. In the fun interview we spoke about their newest album “Habits Of The Heart”, as far as the concept, the role playing they had to do, the video for “Laser Beams” and the upcoming video for “Beautifully Bad”. We also spoke about Res’ follow up album “Reset” and her good friend Santogold. We also spoke about Talib Kweli’s new album “Prisoner Of Conscious”, including the features, when to expect it and where to find details on the anticipated Black Star album. We also spoke about his community mixtape, the idea of Res putting one out for singers, his “Liberation 2″ project with Madlib and Res’ upcoming “Refried Mac” project.
The possibility of a new Black Star album? DOPE. I remember when they dropped a new track last year but didn’t really go anywhere with it. I’ve been dying to hear new material from Mos Def so hopefully this album comes to existence.

Complex has an article of Cudi and Dot Da Genius breaking down their collaborative Rock album track-by-track. This is different from their regular articles because they have videos for each track, so that saves the trouble of reading. Haha. WZRD dropped today so make sure you pick it up in stores or you can grab it on iTunes.
Ab-Soul chops it up with Sway on Sway In the Morning about his black lip problem that he developed at a young age. But an Ab-Soul album is on the way? I’m fucking hyped.
